Prayer

So in the last few days not to much has happened so i don´t have all that much to write about... so this post is a cry for prayer.... There is no doubt that i am having the time of my life here... everyday i see God more and more and my relationship with Him continues to grow stronger... I know many of you are praying and that helps me so much! i believe that i have written this but i will say it again... I came to Basque country with not much in mind in what i would do or really even knowing why i was here... i knew i came because i wanted to learn spanish and hopefully be able to help out Gerald and his family if they needed me... as well as visit those who have visited me in the past! I had know idea what God had in store for me. I have had the opportunity to do things that most americans or any person really would be able to do... and that is be apart of a Basque kuadrilla and participate full on in Basque events! I have been able to hang out just about everyday with this kuadrilla and build my relationships with them! I have been able to pore my love on them and christs love... though i have not been able to mention christ yet... i know its coming as my spanish is improving... yesterday i got to tell the story of how my parents met... mentioning them being missionarys... and i pray everday that God will give me opportunity and that when the opportunity arrives i won´t be scared... but that i will know im not doing it alone but that Christ is with me! and i ask that you to will pray that my relationship with Christ will grow stronger and stronger everyday... and that i will see him more and more and be able to lean on him 100% knowing that i am nothing and i can´t don´t anything without him!

Yes i love it here a ton and yes it has been amazing... but not going to tell you that everyday has been perfect and that i feel 100% every second of the day.... there have been so many times when i would have to go to my room and fall to my knees asking God for strength in many different ways... I am in a beautiful country that is so dark... and at times i feel so alone... because there is not one christian around me... but then i remember to pray and remember that God is with me and he is the light and that some day his light will be spread in this country and soon Basque country will be more beautiful then anyone could imagine! I see God working through Gerald and other families here... and i see him working in Maite´s life... as well as i see him in My own life! to me.. i only have 3 weeks left... so i could really use prayer... that i will be more outgoing... and less afraid to use my spanish and to talk with maite´s friends... and also that i will have more opportunity to see miren, paula and leire and further my relationship with them... as well as pursue more discussions about christ!!! Thank you all so much for your prayers!! it means a ton to me... God is working in ways... i never thought he would... and he is changing me a ton... as i learn to be more loving and caring and more dependent on him!! so thank you and THANK YOU GOD, for changing me and being with me and carrying me... with every step!!! God bless everyone!! and thanks again!!
